History: The Yale Football team has won 27 National Championships since they began competing in 1872. Their biggest rival is the Harvard Crimson, who they have faced off against in “The Game” 138 times since 1875. Yale leads the series 69-61-8 through the 2022 season. Yale is the third-oldest institution of higher education in the United States, and claims many notable alumni, including five U.S. presidents – including George H.W. Bush who starred on the baseball team and participated in the first two College World Series – nineteen U.S. Supreme Court Justices, 12 Nobel Laureates, and since we’re introducing this Yale Shawl collar sweater, we must mention one more famous alumni in Walter Camp, the “Father of American Football.”
